I also believe that at least a percentage really are terrified of a false accusation.

The impression I've been getting the past year or two is that some men really didn't know they were offending anybody.

I think we need to just retrain ourselves. At work, you don't talk religion or politics unless you really know that person well. Same thing with dirty jokes. When I say know them well, I mean like they're your best friends at work so to speak. Don't tell a joke to somebody who appears to be cool.

I don't touch other people at work and nobody touches me. It's not dramatic or anything.

I remember when I was a substitute teacher, the little kids would come up and hug me. I'd put my arm around one who did instead of pushing them away. That's the only time I feel it was ever okay.

Who wouldn't be, now? Some random woman can haul you in front of Congress forty years later claiming that you gang-raped her in high school and the stated position now is that we're all required to believe her, no matter how preposterous her accusation.

I'll be damned if I'm ever going to let myself be alone with a woman who is not a legitimate romantic interest for the rest of my life. I have female friends who were co-workers in the past whom I completely trust would never pull something like that on me, but I still will not do something like go out for friendly drinks after work with them anymore. Two years ago, this wasn't the case for me.

Leftists have unquestionably demonstrated their hatred for due process, and Democrats have undeniably obstructed justice for, and thoroughly victim-shamed and smeared, Karen Monahan.

Agree, You (male) can't take the chance. Women have done this to themselves.
